Product Insights
This discontinued Italian import from Simons exclusive collection is now a collector's item, currently out of stock with a low 2.5-star rating (2 reviews). Priced at $29.95, it undercuts similar boat-neck sweaters from Ulla Popken ($89.95) and LASCANA ($59.95). The 45% modal/45% acrylic blend delivers softness, fluid drape, shape retention, and machine washability, while resisting pilling and bagging. The one-size loose fit (bust 38-40 in, waist 32-34 in) accommodates layering in moderate conditions, and the modal blend reduces clamminess. Its loose fit and soft blend prevent metallic thread from scratching skin. However, care requires a gentle cycle without bleach to maintain the metallic thread's flexibility, and warmth is preserved through washes due to acrylic's resistance to pilling and shape loss.
